Also, another thing to note, since speculation is running rampant.

Naniwa has been staying at the GOM house recently I believe along with Drewbie(while Team MVP was on break) and the two are pretty good friends if I'm not mistaken. I wouldn't be surprised if he ended up on Complexity and would actually pretty happy if that was his decision. I feel like they'd have no problem leaving him in the Korean MVP house for as long as he'd like with the option of flying him to events as well.

I think Naniwa said he'd sacrifice anything to stay in Korea and be the best, so I don't think he'll join any teams that don't let him stay there, no matter what they pay him. So I think he'll either join a Korean team or foreign team with a house or partnership there. So... any Kor team, plus FXO, TL, EG and coL.

The more I'm thinking about it, the more I realise TL is a real possibility, since HuK left, Hero is the only one, and naniwa is as good a replacement as you can get.

I'm pretty sure TL picked up Hero specifically to replace Huk.

except they stated they wanted to be the first foreigner team with a Korean on it (which they didnt achieve) and were planning to sign a Korean since long, and been in discussion with Hero for months

Good news, that's the consequences of having a bad mouth and being arrogant...

What Korean team would want to pick up a player who is not humble and thinks he is smarter
than the whole world? IM coach has explicitly said IdrA is the last person on earth he would
invite to the IM-house, and Naniwa + IdrA have the sameish attitude.

Tyler?

Did not see this coming. This almost lends itself to him geting picked up by a really strong team in SK though or some western team with a crazy deal.

Either way gl Naniwa!

IdrA and Naniwa's attitude hardly the same, or even similar. IdrA blames his failures on his opponents and the state of the game, Naniwa generally responds with, "I suck, I need to get better". Furthermore, he doesn't actively bad manner his opponents either. I don't see how you can compare them at all.

Unless you're talking pre-Dignitas Naniwa, he seems to have grown a fair bit since then. His hyperbolic statements regarding the EU scene is really all I can think of.

No, they didn't. I think Nazgul stated specifically that they were talking to ogs about acquiring Hero long before EG contacted them about acquiring Huk.
